EV and hybrid auxiliary
The Rivian relies on a low-voltage auxiliary battery to wake the car and power its computers. The type varies by model year, so we confirm before attending and tell you honestly if it needs the service centre.

A Rivian parked on Yas Island through the summer faces the same enemy as every other car, which is heat under the bonnet. We test the battery and the charging system on site, and if a replacement is needed we fit the correct BCI group size in the technology the car was built with.

Rivian batteries are specified by BCI group size, which fixes the case dimensions and terminal position.
Some older American models use side-post terminals, so we check terminal style before fitting.
Recent start-stop models use AGM, and some trucks and SUVs have a second or auxiliary battery.

FAQ
Short, direct answers. Message us if yours is not here.
It is the BCI code for the battery's physical size and terminal layout. A Rivian tray and clamp are made for one or two specific groups, so the code has to match. We read it from your current battery and fit the same group.
If your Rivian has engine start-stop or came with AGM from the factory, yes. Older models without start-stop run well on a quality maintenance-free battery. The label on the fitted battery tells us which, and we replace it with the same technology.
It depends on how they are connected. Two batteries working in parallel on a diesel truck should be replaced together. A main battery with a small auxiliary one can be dealt with separately. We test each battery on your Rivian and explain the result.
